Impact of Resident-Led Operating on Outcomes in Adult Cardiac Surgery: A 10-Year Propensity-Matched Analysis
Supervised resident-led operating is safe in well-selected cases. Comparable mortality and morbidity suggest that well-supervised training does not compromise outcomes. These results support structured progressive autonomy in cardiac surgery training, and continued resident involvement in cardiac surgery to promote their development and surgical progression.
